July 22, 2020 Show #64: Chatter Radio
*Disclosure: First 6 minutes is crappy audio. Listen through and you will hear why after 6 min*
This week we had our inaugural Live Radio Show! It was a little rough and janky to get things going with the recording and wifi glitches, but janky is as janky does. We had a multitude of friends call into the show to talk about whats going on in life right now and what the future looks like for Bmx and sport in general! We also got word of some rider beef that may get settled this weekend, so you wont want to miss that!
It was great to kick off this new addition to the Coffee Chatter empire that is these Live Radio shows. Hope you all enjoy, onwards and upwards from here!
